The CW will broadcast the 23rd Annual Critics' Choice Awards live on Thursday, Jan. 11, 2018, from 8-10 p.m. PT. The show will again take place at The Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, Calif.

"We are delighted to welcome the Critics' Choice Awards back to The CW, and showcase the best of both film and television during this live event in January," Gaye Hirsch, The CW's head of development, previously told E! News. "As award season kicks into high gear, we're thrilled we can bring viewers an exciting night filled with the biggest and brightest stars in Hollywood."

The Shape of Water leads the pack with 14 nominations.

The Broadcast Film Critics Association (BFCA) and the Broadcast Television Journalists Association (BTJA) received nominating ballots on Dec. 1, and final ballots are due Jan. 9, 2018.

"2017 has proved to be an incredibly exciting year in movies—and one of the most wide-open in terms of awards possibilities," BFCA president Joey Berlin said in a statement Wednesday. "The mix of legendary filmmakers and performers along with vibrant new voices representing fresh and varied styles and perspectives has entertained and challenged critics and audiences alike. It's been a joy to experience these films and we can't wait to celebrate them all Jan. 11."

In a separate statement Wednesday, BTJA president Ed Martin echoed Berlin's sentiments. "Choosing a handful of outstanding programs or personalities to nominate in any category is a daunting task given the sheer volume of high quality options today on broadcast and cable television and streaming services. But after much careful consideration and thoughtful debate," Martin said, "I believe we have filled all of our categories with the most deserving nominees."
